Checked /usr/smartdisk/diskmanager/etc/storage.cfg found storage entry for /NVSD/sd1 had no volume entry as as seen below:
[SmartDisk:Storage Pool]
Label = Store
Deny = Staging
Favour = Storage, Chunk Index, Disk Index
Overflow For = None
Balancing = Activity
Reservation Size = 1, GB
Cause: corruption in /usr/smartdisk/diskmanager/etc/storage.cfg file
Inserted volume entry for storage volume as below:
[SmartDisk:Storage Pool]
Label = Store
Deny = Staging
Favour = Storage, Chunk Index, Disk Index
Overflow For = None
Balancing = Activity
Reservation Size = 1, GB
[SmartDisk:Volume]
Storage Pool = Store
Size = 100, %
Deduplication Activity Cap = 4
Location = /NVSD/sd1
Explanation: the /usr/smartdisk/diskmanager/etc/storage.cfg file has a pool entry and a volume entry for each for storage or staging areas and if the volume entry is missing the volume is not mounted and we get the error “Pool 'Store' has no volumes”
